Georgengasse 17, Heritage monument at Georgengasse 17, Rothenburg ob der Tauber, Germany

The Judentanzhaus features traditional timber framing architecture and stands as a three-story building with Renaissance elements from its 1613 reconstruction.

The structure served as a dance house for the Jewish community until 1520, when Jews were expelled from Rothenburg ob der Tauber.

Emperor Charles IV documented the dance house in a 1353 charter, indicating its role as a central meeting point for the Jewish population.

The building coordinates at 49.378262 latitude and 10.180228 longitude place it near the medieval Jewish quarter of Rothenburg ob der Tauber.

The Winterbach patrician family constructed the current building on the foundations of a former Jewish inn, incorporating elements of regional architectural style.
